Heyman: Yeah, but D-X was a whole different kind of stable from Evolution. D-X got over because it was full of raunchy badass types that fit in perfectly with the Attitude era. Plus, they were faces for a lot of the time. Evolution's just another take on the Four Horsemen formula, in that they're made of a rich elitist champ and his cronies, which works when someone like Flair is in charge. Problem is, they don't identify at all with the audience, so if one of the henchmen steps up and becomes the leader, it doesn't work at all.

How long do you think the Horsemen would have stayed on top with Tully Blanchard as the leader? That's more or less the exact same thing as putting Orton in charge of Evolution (except that Blanchard was somewhat over)
